The plot of the movie follows
Khaled Hosseini’s highly acclaimed novel. It tells the
story of Amir, a well-to-do boy from Kabul, who is haunted by the
guilt of betraying his childhood friend Hassan, the son of his
father's Hazara servant. The story is set against a backdrop of
tumultuous events, from the fall of the monarchy in Afghanistan
through the Soviet invasion, the mass exodus of refugees to
Pakistan and the United States, and the Taliban regime. If you
missed seeing this film last year then don’t miss it this
time and if you did see it before then it’s well worth a
second viewing.
